The Wise Insight of Tucker Carlson
 
This from Aug 27, but I just stumbled upon it. It tells you everything you need to know about the presenter. Mainly, that he will present any ridiculous propaganda line with a straight face. Just throwing another kilo on the culture war fire here, while distracting from the effects of easy access to assault weapons, of course....

Tucker Carlson suggests link between mass shootings and marijuana use

The stupid is getting so deep, one struggles to fathom how much worse it can get. Trump gets up in front of his crowds now and literally just babbles inane nonsense like an asylum inmate and they love it.

Tucker Carlson now carrying Trump water by the carload, saying what he's told to say! Here he demagogues against aid to Ukraine:
Quote:

Fox News host Tucker Carlson questioned the practice of sending foreign aid to Ukraine on Tucker Carlson Tonight, with a guest saying “a lot of places where we pour foreign aid over the years are corrupt.”

Say what he is told to say?

Tucker has criticized Trump for bombing Syria.

Cautioned Trump re precipitous, reckless action against Iran following the downing of an American drone.

He consistently illuminated the dangerous and recycled neo-cons, Bolton, Krystol, Boot.

He is the lone anti war voice and ironically speaking from a Fox platform, which at times find him at odds with other presenters such as Hannity on similar issues.


Here is classic Carlson.

Ukraine is another "protectorate". But this one is smart. This one is going to take US taxpayers to the cleaners.

Putin made the mistake of trying to adopt it in the face of its western trend. He was saved by the coup from undertaking such a costly adoption. Ukraine is basket case, a country with some of the wiliest operators.

The coup also allowed him the opportunity to secure Crimea with its important base and large Russian population. So the cost to the Russia is mainly Crimea and not the entire Ukraine.

Russia is trying to ease off the rebellious provinces back to Ukraine. Notice the suppression and quieting of the independent, rebellious leaders.

I stand by my evaluation of the content I referred to as Trump-running-dog demagoguery. Simplistic, stupid propaganda aimed at the deeply-uncritical and unthinking base. Whatever independence Tucker may have shown in the past is not in evidence just now.

Your evaluation of a complex, highly factionalized country as a single malevolent but smart 'persona' who is going to 'take us to the cleaners' reeks of xenophobia.

Anyone who defends Carlson is complicit in his blatant hate mongering. His supporters are cultists, and a danger to democracy.

Yep, he's a real peach. About as informed as Matt Gaetz or Devin's Cow.

If you like Tucker Carlson you either like hate-mongering, or are willing to ignore it. No third option.
